dancing in the garden

These are such ordinary shots of a kid dancing around, but fooling around in a dancing sort of way is new for Julia.  I wonder if having the courage to dance with her classmates triggered a release.  She is also choosing to use the wii to play Just Dance for Kids as a reward after a therapy session.   Whatever it is, Julia is enjoying moving more.  She starts a week-long bike camp next week.  I hope that this desire to use her body in new ways carries over.

The dress she is wearing is a hand me down from Cheshire.  I've only kept a few favorites -- more favorites of mine than of hers.  At least, I think so.  Julia slides into it easily and it is so much like her.

We are still battling a sinus infection.  I took her to another doc visit yesterday and the doc prescribed a change in antibiotic.  The cough and runny nose is not a good way to start summer.  It is not warm enough to swim these days but I would have a hard time letting her swim right now.  Her spirits are not dimmed but she gets tired too quickly and sleeps too hard not to notice.
